(Part 2) Best products from r/Gifts

-Brie Baker with all the ingredients to get started (Brie cheese, fruit, nuts, honey)

-Butter Bell with a loaf of locally made bread

-Mariposa Napkin Box with Weights and Cocktail Napkins

-Cocktail Shaker Set with Bitters, Stirrers, and a nice bottle of liquor

-Cool coffee table book (esp. if it matches a gift set mentioned above (The Art of Mixology or Magnolia Table) or it's hostess-themed, such as Kate Spade's All In Good Taste or Emily Post's Manners for Today)

-Guest Book for house/bathroom/guest room (and this is always fun because you can be the first one to sign it and everyone at the housewarming party can sign it/write a message). Look around Etsy for these...I'm not crazy about the ones on Amazon.

Hope this helps! Happy housewarming to your friend!

You beat me to it! I was thinking the same thing. Some ideas:

Gift card (seriously even on steam the $50 dollar card can go pretty far):

Hope this gives you some ideas! I would honestly combine a few of those together or something. These area affiliate links so do not be alarmed, but they will take you to Amazon and if you are not into these you can easily find something else.

These flashlights are awesome: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y1VZR6J/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Have you heard of sous vide? https://www.amazon.com/Anova-Culinary-Precision-Bluetooth-Included/dp/B01HHWSV1S/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1542952053&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=sous+vide&psc=1

You could get him like a gift set. I got my dad this spice set last year and he loved it!

https://www.amazon.com/FreshJax-Grilling-Spice-Gift-Set/dp/B00XCY3FJY/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1542650673&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=freshjax%2Bgrilling%2Bspice%2Bgift%2Bset%2C%2Bset%2Bof%2B5&th=1

What about a funny work related thing? https://www.amazon.co.uk/MAKE-MONEY-J-DUNCAN-joke-prank/dp/1543011268/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1487451364&sr=8-1&keywords=r+j+duncan

If that doesn't work I would go for a plant, or possibly, if you know what his favourite animal is, I would maybe check online for artsy pictures of those animals on Canvas. Nothing too flashy though, as I imagine he still wants to keep it professional?

Hope it works out! :)

Since he is into gaming, consider a VR headset like this one>
https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Gear-VR-Virtual-Reality/dp/B016OFYGXQ/

If you want something more elaborate, you could organize a history-themed treasure hunt in your locality/ city with a small prize for every puzzle he solves. Or a minecraft themed hunt> https://games.thefuntimesguide.com/2011/09/scavenger-hunts.php

We did this for our adult daughter for Christmas last year. We gave her one clue that led to another clue in the house, etc. Ultimately she ended up with this puzzle box from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/4Thought-Products-Puzzle-Pod-Cryptex/dp/B009RROA26/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=puzzle+gift+holder&qid=1569523757&s=gateway&sr=8-1

You can program the answer to any five letter word. She had to use the last clue to solve the combination to open the gift. It was a lot of fun to watch.

If he uses his hands a lot then this is a great option.

​

I'm a carpenter and I use this thing every day, its a magnetic armband that is super durable and has strong magnets.

I suggested this in another post, but having to display this creepy sequin nicolas cage pillow could be pretty funny.

some other ideas- pooping pooches calendar, this weird jeff goldblum shower curtain

I have gotten these for several friends and they have all loved them. https://www.amazon.com/mookaitedecor-Assorted-Sculpture-Gemstone-Collectible/dp/B07DHLQ7QL/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=skull+set+gemstones&qid=1563389624&s=home-garden&sr=1-3

What Color Is Your Parachute? 2017: A Practical Manual for Job-Hunters and Career-Changers

If he has a compatible phone the Samsung Gear VR might be worth a go. I've not tried it so can't properly recommend it but I have tried the HTC Vive system which was amazing, but at $800 is out of your budget.

Does she have any of the illustrated versions of the Harry Potter books? They are absolutely gorgeous!
